West Welsford Wild Camping

Having spotted the sea from afar on site, no doubt you’ll want to get down to the shore as soon as possible. It’s a couple of miles to the South West Coast Path from the farm, with some local highlights being Hartland Quay, Speke’s Mill Mouth Waterfall and the cute little seaside village of Clovelly – all are about 10 minutes’ drive away (and make sure to stop by at elegant Hartland Abbey en route too). For proper sandy beaches, you’ll want to head to stunning Sandymouth Bay or Duckpool Bay (both 20 minutes’ drive away) or make a beeline for Bude (also 20 minutes) and its surf waves and surf schools. Heading in the other direction, it’s a 25-minute drive to Westward Ho! In between all of these are plenty of places to get out for a scenic hike on the coast path. Thrills of a different variety are on hand at The Milky Way Adventure Park (10 minutes) and The BIG Sheep (20 minutes), which has all sorts of cute creatures to meet as well as rides and other family attractions.
